Reception of the News in Russia Moscow, Oct. 25.-The Attack made by the Baltic Squadron on the English fishing floet in the sole topic of conversation here to-day. None of the newspapers have yot ventured to comment on the incident, but public opinion finds free expression.
In some quarters the affair is treated as the result of a regrettable error, arising out

of the excessive cution of the Russian Naval officers, and their fear of Japanese enterprise.
Other people-ard they are in the majo rity-appear to find more or less satisfaction

A most striking explanation of the inc dent has been suggested to me by a Rus- sian, who, after indulging himself in a bitter sneer at the first victory' obtained by s Russian Fleet, expressed it as his opinion that either the Naval Commanders were culpably ignorant of their duties, or else purposely intended to create a situation which, while admitting of settlement by compensation and apology, would at the same time probably provide the Bille Fleet with adequate reasons for postponing. its voyage to the Far East until it would be too late to share the risks of the War.
Many enlightened Russians in good posi tion whom I know never believed that it was really intended to despatch the Baltic Fleet to the Pacific.

It is an undoubted fact that the provocative atti tude previously adopted by the cruisers of the Russian Volunteer Fleet was highly popular in Ru ala. The present incident le likowine certain to win approbation from the Russian people, whose ignorance of Naval matters even allows them to considér the exploit as anat'a k, by the Baltic Fleet, on one hundred and fifty, steamers,'

Three lights, as is gen. erally known, have been placed in prominent positions, which materially assist ship-masters who have to navigate the river after dark, and, as the number of steamers which nightly ply between Hongkong and Canton is greater than ever before, and not likely to be less in the future, this attempt to render safe

THE PICNIC GIRL
WHAT SIE HAS To Pur Ur WITH.
THE Picnio Girl goes out for pleasure; Lbut she has much to put up with. She must mix the salad, and keep the earwign out of it, and she mustn't scream when a spider walks over her hand. Sometimes a burst of rain spoils her pretty frook: but she must still look cheerful and try to pretend that she likes it. And these

There was hardly a part of my body which was not at one time or another affected with the rheumatism. continued the apeaker (Mrs Moorcroft, of 88 Leven- street, Kirkdale, Liverpool, England). 'My appetito almost compl tely left me, and when I did get the length of walking even a few yards I soon became tired out, both with the pain and difficulty experienced in breathing. I despaired, after I had suffor ed in the way I have described for many years, of ever being l'ke other people again. Nothing did me any good until I tried Dr Williams' pink pills. Three bottles effected An improvement, and as I persevered with them a little time I soon felt quite well again, and have been so now for a lung time. My appetite has returned; Irm able to sleep; I have no juín, and I fud pleasure in working.'
Ms Monteroft's case is like many others She needed new blool to cure her rheu- matism, and Dr Williams' pink pills cured her by making new blood, just as they have cured so many cases of a mis, bile, consumption, decline, fire, St. Vits dance, hysteria, and the many troubles which women silently endure. It is im portant to inist on having the genuine pille, with Dr Williams' name, as some shopkeepers push useless substitutes.
